About This Home

As of June 2025

Situated on a generous corner lot in the sought after Falling Shoals subdivisions, which is known by Athens locals as the quintessential quiet neighborhood where your neighbors quickly become friends, and you'll have access to the best club house pool in all of Athens! this inviting 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is a steal—priced well below market value for a quick move! Walking into 401 Falling Shoals, you'll be guided towards a sun-drenched sunroom with a flowing layout creating an ideal space for relaxation or hosting gatherings. Upstairs are 4 beautiful bedrooms peacefully distanced from downstairs living space and a master bath with dual vanity, separate tub/shower, and plenty of room in the walk-in closet.

The stunning backyard is a true highlight, featuring the perfect deck for hosting and entertaining, or relaxing amid the peaceful surroundings. It's so nice to be only minutes from the new mixed use development in Watkinsville and downtown Athens with all the shopping and entertainment you'll need! This home has been cherished and loved so dearly by its owners, who are now ready to pass it along to someone new.
